Manufacturing

Manufacturing businesses operate in asset-intensive environments where income depends directly on premises, plant and machinery. We advise manufacturers across a wide range of subsectors, from food and beverage to technology, helping our clients to protect their assets and underpin operational continuity.

Insurance broking

Expertise for asset-intensive and supply chain risk

Manufacturing businesses are more reliant than most sectors on their physical infrastructure. Buildings, plant, production lines and specialist machinery must be correctly valued and insured and business interruption cover must be structured to reflect factors such as supplier dependencies, operational technology and the time required to restore full input.

We advise manufacturing businesses across the whole range of insurable risks including:

Employee benefits

Supporting your people

Manufacturing businesses operate in competitive labour markets where recruitment and retention are ongoing challenges.

Employee benefits must balance cost discipline with meaningful support for a diverse workforce — from shop-floor employees to senior leaders. Financial priorities, and therefore solutions such as workplace pensions, naturally differ across income levels and career stages. A one-size-fits-all approach rarely reflects these dynamics or delivers true impact across an organisation.

Our impact

Repositioning risk

Following rapid growth across several business units, the insurance arrangements for this family-owned group had not kept pace. Over time, cover had become fragmented, overly complex and dependent on a narrow panel of insurers. Bartlett was asked to review the programme in full including pricing, adequacy of cover and risk presentation.
